From contextual metaphors to hybrid typologies| Sprawling resort home by Ar. Nitin Killawala | Biblical references in design| Game review and more

How does a designer/ architect begin a new design? What is the starting point; that eureka moment, that then determines the future course of action? As we browse through our stories for this week, we come across a diverse inspirational set: from alluding to biblical stories to reinventing contextuality in architecture to going beyond set boundaries of art and architecture... our pages come alive with intrigue, awe and a feeling of abandon; liberation even, as we savour and imbibe different approaches to design and design thinking. We absolutely recommend a complete read this time. You’re sure to garner something from every gem present here. Cheers to the New Year countdown! Merrily, Savitha Hira Editor
